They will always be a center piece for MLS….except for the literal decades they were not and were relegated to jerking off to players from STL who had success for other cities.

The only reason KC got a team from the start of the MLS and St Louis didn't was all because of Lamar Hunt.

Mods can we close this turd? It's steering traffic away from the DeAndre Hopkins thread.

Those teams don’t get to sit around calling themselves a centerpiece of the NFL. St Louis was doing **** all while other communities were actually in reality building the domestic league. And good for them for getting to parachute in after more than 25 years and be a part of something that others built. |

Not in the least.
STL was relegated to convincing people how important they were while other people were actually doing the work. Like having Scott Gallagher around is equal to having domestic club and building the league. You can bitch that Lamar benched the city but you can’t pretend the city wasn’t on the bench while others did the work. Talking up US Open Cup wins they were not alive for. |

yeah this is my main gripe with their fanbase so far. the history of soccer in STL is kinda cool, but you cannot take credit for things your brand new team had nothing to do with.
congratulations on that catholic boys school beating a team from the northeast in the 1890s or whenever the ****. they probably won it by having the fewest players with polio. everyone else really wishes they had accomplishments like this, and totally thinks it reflects on your current team that's 4 months old. |

Living in the past is pretty typical for St Louis sports fans. They still love to claim all of those World Series titles from the segregation era when they weren’t even the best baseball team in their own state.

Survived quite a scare from Canada. Busio had a really good game was worried the story was going to be the chances he did not capitalize on until he got the equalizer in stoppage time and had a perfect strike in PKs. Quite a day for him.
